Captain Jean-Luc Picard
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: [on Data's vision] I am curious, Mr. Data, why are you looking at all these other cultures?
- Lt. Commander Data: The interpretation of visions and other metaphysical experiences are almost always culturally derived, and I have no culture of my own.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Yes, you do. You're a culture of one, which is no less valid than a culture of one billion.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Explore this image, Data. Let it... excite your imagination. Focus on it. See where it leads you. Let it inspire you.
- Lt. Commander Data: [entered Picard's ready room] I am sorry to disturb you, sir.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Oh, not at all. I'm here studying the intricacies of Bajoran aqueduct management. I would welcome a little interruption.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: When we look at Michelangelo's David or Symnay's Tomb, we don't ask what does this mean to other people. The real question is what does it mean to us.
